Former Sen. David Jones Identified As “Bag Man #2 As Department Of Interior Arrives On St. Thomas

Got a question for Jimmy O’Bryan but you can’t ever get through on the phone?

Never fear, CIF has the solution for you.

Starting now, Jimmy will be monitoring this blog to see and answer the questions you’d like to pose. This clip will remain in the sidebar on CIF and you need only click here to add your question to Jimmy’s blog.

Will he try again?

Word has it that Kenneth Mapp is going to make another run at Government House in the 2014 election.

With the theme of "Hope Over Despair," his last run ended in controversy in the midst of concerns about the accuracy of the voting machines and an emotional rally with his supporters on St. Croix. At that time, there was discussion of challenges that were to be issued to the Board of Elections on the election procedures, but no results were ever revealed from those inquiries.

Controversial but persistent, could he be considering another run? And if he is, can he win?

VI Action Group, Inc. will be video recording all Board Meetings of the VI Elections System as a Public Service. All meetings will be made promptly available for viewing online. This will include the St. Croix District Board, the St. Thomas/St. John District Board, and the Joint Board of Election meetings.

We encourage the Virgin Island community at home and abroad to view these meetings at their convenience. It’s hoped that the ability to view these meetings first hand will positively aid in the rebuilding of our Election System, and your education of the local electoral process.

The first of these recorded meetings can be found at the link below.”

Open Forum

As many of you heard recently, CIF President Michael Springer, at left, delivered the first in a series of radio announcements that will target specific issues and offer analysis on our most pressing concerns.

The feedback on the comments was extremely positive, so CIF will sponsor then as often as possible, and we thank those of you who have already donated! But airtime costs money and we're seeking your help.

If you'd like to help keep our voices on the air, please donate whatever you can using the PayPal button below. We thank you in advance for your support.

Be sure to click on the link below to see the latest iReport on our crippling corruption and scroll down to the comments. A wolverine posting under the name of "Bornyah" is trying to tell the world that the information that's getting some widespread attention is just "half-truth" from "disgruntled" people.

Nice try, Keep on reading and posting people. And send these links to everyone you know!

This past weekend, one of our CIF bloggers started a campaign to post the stories of our discontent on CNN iReports. If you scroll through the blogs from the past three days, you will see that this campaign has grown some very long legs in a very short time.
